  • we're going to make our country more secure; we'll strengthen our families; and most importantly,

  • we will live --

  • AUDIENCE MEMBER: Mr. Obama --

  • THE PRESIDENT: -- most importantly, we will live up --

  • AUDIENCE MEMBER: -- my family has been separated for 19 months now --

  • THE PRESIDENT: -- most importantly, we will live up to our character as a nation.

  • AUDIENCE MEMBER: I've not seen my family. Our families are separated. I need your help.

  • There are thousands of people --

  • THE PRESDIENT: That's exactly what we're talking about.

  • AUDIENCE MEMBER: -- are torn apart every single day.

  • THE PRESIDENT: That's why we're here.

  • AUDIENCE MEMBER: Mr. President, please use your executive order to halt deportations

  • for all 11.5 undocumented immigrants in this country right now.

  • THE PRESIDENT: What we're trying --

  • AUDIENCE MEMBER: Do you agree

  • AUDIENCE: Obama! Obama! Obama!

  • AUDIENCE MEMBER: -- that we need to pass comprehensive immigration reform at the same time we -- you

  • have a power to stop deportation for all undocumented immigrants in this country.

  • THE PRESIDENT: Actually I don't. And that's why we're here.

  • AUDIENCE MEMBER: So, please, I need your help.

  • THE PRESIDENT: Okay --

  • AUDIENCE MEMBER: Stop deportations!

  • AUDIENCE MEMBER: Stop deportations!

  • THE PRESIDENT: Thank you. All right.

  • AUDIENCE MEMBERS: Stop deportations! Stop deportations!

  • THE PRESIDENT: What I'd like to do -- no, no, don't worry about it, guys. Okay, let

  • me finish.

  • AUDIENCE MEMBERS: Stop deportations! Yes, we can! Stop deportations!

  • THE PRESIDENT: These guys don't need to go. Let me finish. No, no, no, he can stay there.

  • Hold on a second. (Applause.) Hold on a second.

  • So I respect the passion of these young people because they feel deeply about the concerns

  • for their families. Now, what you need to know, when I'm speaking as President of the

  • United States and I come to this community, is that if, in fact, I could solve all these

  • problems without passing laws in Congress, then I would do so.

  • But we're also a nation of laws. That's part of our tradition. And so the easy way out

  • is to try to yell and pretend like I can do something by violating our laws. And what

  • I'm proposing is the harder path, which is to use our democratic processes to achieve

  • the same goal that you want to achieve. But it won't be as easy as just shouting. It requires

  • us lobbying and getting it done. (Applause.)

  • So for those of you who are committed to getting this done, I am going to march with you and

  • fight with you every step of the way to make sure that we are welcoming every striving,

  • hardworking immigrant who sees America the same way we do -- as a country where no matter

  • who you are or what you look like or where you come from, you can make it if you try.

  • And if you're serious about making that happen, then I'm ready to work with you. (Applause.)

  • But it is going to require work. It is not simply a matter of us just saying we're going

  • to violate the law. That's not our tradition. The great thing about this country is we have

  • this wonderful process of democracy, and sometimes it is messy, and sometimes it is hard, but

  • ultimately, justice and truth win out. That's always been the case in this country; that's

  • going to continue to be the case today. (Applause.)

  • Thank you very much, everybody. God bless you. God bless America. (Applause.)

we're going to make our country more secure; we'll strengthen our families; and most importantly,
